If you're a fan of Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action, you might also like:
Imagine you're at a concert, and the band starts playing your favorite song. You don't just love the melody; you connect with the story behind the lyrics. That’s what starting with why feels like. It’s about connecting on a deeper level, whether it’s with a product, a movement, or even a personal goal.
Sinek introduces this concept of The Golden Circle. Picture three circles: why at the center, surrounded by how, and then what. Most people and organizations focus on the outer rings, starting with what. But those who inspire, those who lead, begin from the inside out. They start with why.
Take a look at historical figures like Martin Luther King Jr. or innovators like Steve Jobs. They didn’t just have a plan; they had a purpose that others could rally behind. King didn’t just want civil rights; he had a dream that captivated and moved people. Jobs didn’t just create products; he revolutionized the way people thought about technology by showing them why it mattered.
This idea isn't just for leaders. It’s for anyone who wants to inspire change or create something meaningful. It’s about understanding your own motivations, your own why. Then sharing that with others in a way that resonates. It’s like planting a seed and watching it grow, because when you start with why, you’re not just selling a product or idea. You’re sharing a piece of yourself.
Sinek's book is loaded with examples of companies and leaders who got it right. But it’s not just about business. It’s about life. It’s about waking up and feeling excited about what you’re doing because you know why you’re doing it. That’s the kind of energy that’s contagious. People can feel it, and they want to be part of it.
Sometimes it’s easy to lose sight of our why. We get caught up in the daily grind, ticking off tasks, meeting goals. But every now and then, it’s good to stop and ask ourselves, why am I doing this? Does it align with my purpose? Does it light me up? If not, maybe it’s time for a change.
This isn’t just about big dreams or world-changing ideas. It can be as simple as your daily choices. Why do you choose to spend time with certain people? Why do you choose to pursue a hobby, or a career path? When you have clarity on your why, the what and how naturally follow. Decision making becomes easier because you’re aligned with your purpose.
The power of starting with why is that it creates loyalty. People don't just buy what you do; they buy why you do it. It’s a principle that applies to everything from marketing to relationships. Imagine building a brand, a team, or a life that’s not just successful, but significant. That’s what starting with why can do.
So next time you’re setting a goal, or trying to persuade someone, or even just figuring out your next step, remember to start with why. It’s more than just advice; it’s a mindset. And who knows? It might just change the way you see the world, and how the world sees you.
These recommendations have been generated by a transformer model that analyzes certain features of books: such as their genre, content, style, authorship, descriptions, and reviews to compare the semantics of books and determine their similarity score. The more books have in common, the higher their percentual similarity score.
